This icon of the 1970s was piloted by everyone from Barbie to Captain America and revolutionized the RV industry with its FWD Toronado-based powertrain. The recession of the late '70s killed the GMC Motorhome off after just six years of production, but collectors and a cult following have ensured that many of the 13,000 units produced are still on the road. We'll take ours in malaise brown and green, please. [SQUOB]

<![CDATA[1957 International Metro Motor Home Could Make Anyone Into Hunter S. Thompson]]> After bright red Cadillac El Dorados and desert racers, we can imagine no other vehicle more capable of evoking gonzo journalistic activities than this International Motorhome. Sure it's a little rusty now, and this particular model would require the addition of a very powerful engine and multiple drug cabinets, but it's there, lurking beneath that perfectly patina'd yellow paint — the call of the open road. This gem is practically begging for misadventure and with only a day left it's going for a scant $1,047.22. Someone needs to get this before we do.
